Hello,
I guess download and install ambition can fix your problem. This is only my suggestion.
Wait for the Admin respond for clear/complete instruction.

Thanks.

Hello,

Please do the following to fix your problem:

First backup your SaveGames.

1. Uninstall The Sims 3 and all its expansions.
2. Restart your PC.
3. Reinstall The Sims 3.
4. Reinstall WA.*
5. Reinstall HELS.*
6. Install Ambitions. (Otherwise the launcher won't work!)

Hello,
I have done that but it doesn`t work.

After i installed Ambitions i tryed to star the game on crack but I get an error message saying: Error Your The Sims 3 Base Game is incompatible with the current Sims 3 Expansion Pack. Please update your base game.

But my launcher says that game is up to date (version 1.15.34).

When I try to run the game with launcher I get another message:
It looks like you have installed an unofficial game modification that does not match your currrent version of The Sims 3. We recommend that you either uninstall these game modifications or get update versions of them-otherwise you may experience crashes or significant bugs."

After this message I have to restart my computer besause it freezes.
I downloaded your fix but in install instruction it says that it is for Windows Vista and 7 and I have Xp

Is there any way to solve this problem?

Hello,
Please scroll down at your Ambition fix installation guide. At the bottom of Windows 7 and Vista fix installation guide, you can guide for Windows XP.
But here, I included the Guide:

Applying the FIX on WINDOWS XP:

1. Open "Start" and click on "Run". Type "regedit" and press [ENTER].
2. Now, navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Sims.
3. In this folder ("Sims"), you'll see the names of the Sims games you've Installed on your system. Open
the folders one by one and check their SKU value. They should be as following:

The Sims 3 base game...........: 2
The Sims 3: World Adventures...: 2
The Sims 3: High End Loft Stuff: 1
The Sims 3: Ambitions..........: 1

If yours says something else, just double-click on "SKU" and change it to the value shown above.

4. Open the "The Sims 3" folder in this .rar file and copy + paste the two files in there to:
C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Game\Bin and REPLACE them with the existing ones.
5. Now open the "The Sims 3 - Ambitions" folder in this .rar file and copy + paste the two files in there
to: C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 Ambitions\Game\Bin and REPLACE them with the existing
ones.
6. Now start the Game and... ENJOY playing!
